PRAISE IN THE PARK 2017

The annual PRAISE IN THE PARK service was held on Pentecost Sunday, 4 th June 2017, at 11.00am in The Pump Room Gardens, Leamington Spa. The Service was led by the Revd. Jonathan Jee, Vicar of St. Paul’s Church, Leicester Street, Leamington Spa. The Preacher was James Lawrence who worships at St. Mark’s Church in Leamington and who works with the Church Pastoral Aid Society (CPAS) in leadership development. St. Paul’s Church organises the annual ‘Praise in the Park’ event for the benefit of the whole town. Around 1,500 people from many of the churches in the town gathered together to worship and pray for Leamington. The event was a great expression of our Christian unity. St. Paul’s Church contributed the music, stewarding and technical expertise to make the event a success. People brought their fold up chairs or a rug and enjoyed praising God with other people from local churches. Some also brought a picnic to enjoy afterwards. For those who were unable to get to the Pump Room Gardens, there was the usual 10.30am worship at Radford Road Church.
